Using your RF display scanner for order verification and purchase order receiving

Vision supports both display and non-display handheld scanners. Wired scanners are attached to a PC or terminal at fixed scanning stations in the warehouse. Though wired scanners are inexpensive, they require use of the attached terminal keyboard for any data additions or corrections and are fixed to a specific scanning station.

Symbol wireless display scanners operate in RF mode and are portable throughout the warehouse. The same scanners may be used for both order verification and purchase order receiving. The handheld scanners have a small screen as well as a keyboard that allows non-scan data entry from wherever the user may be operating. The warehouse must be configured with antennas that can transmit the signal to the host.
